Welcome to my MARKDARTIST website!

I'm not much for social media. Google plus is my choice, a place where no one bothers me. To stay even further under the radar, this is my social website where its all about me. Here you can see some of the results of my too many hobbies – trumpet hunter and restorer, musician, painter (water color, oil, fresco), as well as links to some not too exciting adventuring – bicycle racing, sailboat racing, wine hike guide.

A few of my favorite things...

Chet Baker, jazz jams, pinot noir, afternoons in the Strait of Juan de Fuca, painting shadows in watercolor, adding water to quick lime (is that legal?), sprinting through the peloton for the finish, the camaraderie of a good sail crew on a long race, peeling paint with a G above high C, signing a painting, the Royal Victoria Yacht Club bar...


Playing a rare Wm. Frank cornet at a jazz jam...


Working on an oil paining...


At the finish in Victoria B.C., ready for a hot meal and cool pint of Race Rocks ale!


Getting ready for a little exercise as the Oregon Offshore International Yacht Race gets started at the Columbia River entrance...
